:-)<br />
I reply to your message in the patch section, not the<br />
features request one, because it seems there is no way<br />
to attach patch files in the submit form of the latter<br />
one.<br />
Here is the patch to add pre-2.4 kernel compatibility<br />
for Sparc Happy Meal Ethernet card like it was<br />
supported by the first release of ethtool (1.0),<br />
followed by an attempt to make ethtool more user<br />
friendly when the default behavior (getting settings)<br />
is not implemented by the device driver: in default<br />
operation mode (1 arg), it now tries to display both<br />
card settings and driver information. New -g option is<br />
added to only get the former output.<br />
I hope both patches will be added to the next release.<br />
btw, can you give me a schedule for it?<br />
Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Ed.</p></div>Eric DelaunayFri, 09 Nov 2001 23:36:04 -0000http://sourceforge.nete8714155a98fd781c34c6cf5237d67cd9c9e8890
